Pinwheel's equity carries significant downside risk.

Last updated: July 19, 2026

Bull (20%)-63%

If growth continues at 60% and exit multiple reaches 8x (driven by IPO rumors), projected exit value $231M, net of 20% dilution yields -63% return.

Base (50%)-82%

With 60% growth decaying and exit multiple converging to public comps of 4x, projected exit $116M, net of dilution yields -81.5%.

Bear (30%)-86%

Under slower growth and multiple compression to 3x, projected exit $87M, net of dilution yields -86.1%, common stock nearly worthless.

Est. time to liquidity~4.5 years

Preference Stack Risk

moderate

Funding Intensity

15%

Total funding $77M vs valuation $500M (15.4% ratio), but bear case exit values exceed preference, so common stock may recover.

Dilution Risk

high

Last round in 2022; no recent funding, so a dilutive raise is likely within 24 months, cutting ownership by 15-25%.

Secondary Liquidity

none

No secondary market activity reported; employees likely have no liquidity until exit.
